08:44.600 --> 08:49.000 How that medium up there on that stage could read those messages with his eyes taped up 08:49.000 --> 08:50.280 and bandaged like that. 08:50.280 --> 08:51.280 Oh that. 08:51.280 --> 08:52.280 Some kind of a trick? 08:52.280 --> 08:54.160 A trick that has a natural explanation? 08:54.160 --> 08:55.160 No, Harry. 08:55.160 --> 08:58.880 It looked to me like genuine clairvoyance. 08:58.880 --> 09:02.040 Carlo, I can't bring myself to believe in that stuff. 09:02.040 --> 09:04.600 I'm strictly from Missouri, I have to be sure. 09:04.600 --> 09:08.960 You recall what Hamlet said, there are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than 09:08.960 --> 09:10.720 are dreamt of in your philosophy. 09:10.720 --> 09:16.080 Well, I'd go so far as to say that there are things in life that are difficult to explain 09:16.080 --> 09:17.680 or understand. 09:17.680 --> 09:21.000 But that's only because our minds aren't ready for the explanation. 09:21.000 --> 09:24.880 Tell me, have you ever dreamed of flying in the air? 09:24.880 --> 09:27.000 Sure, everybody does, one time or another. 09:27.000 --> 09:29.080 I do all the time. 09:29.080 --> 09:32.240 Some people say it's a prehistoric memory of when we were apes and jumped from tree 09:32.240 --> 09:34.840 to tree, but there's a lot more to it than that. 09:34.840 --> 09:37.720 It's a marvelous sensation. 09:37.720 --> 09:39.400 Perfectly marvelous. 09:39.400 --> 09:44.800 Why, you know, I can float along through streets, over hills, valleys, and rivers, floating 09:44.800 --> 09:47.520 anywhere I want to go, simply by directing my will. 09:47.520 --> 09:49.600 Carlo, you know what Freud's theory is. 09:49.600 --> 09:53.400 No, no, he's as far off as those 25-cent dream books that people read. 09:53.400 --> 09:59.120 Why, to me, these flying dreams are as real as anything in my waking life. 09:59.120 --> 10:00.720 But still, only a dream. 10:00.720 --> 10:04.120 Yes, but even in a dream, you have to learn how to do it. 10:04.120 --> 10:06.120 It takes a special technique. 10:06.120 --> 10:08.640 You learn one step at a time. 10:08.640 --> 10:11.720 Carlo, I'm afraid anything is possible in a dream. 10:11.720 --> 10:15.720 I began by taking enormous jumps, oh, perhaps a hundred feet. 10:15.720 --> 10:19.580 And then when I land, I spring off again, exactly like a bouncing ball. 10:19.580 --> 10:22.480 It's a question of timing your mental impulses. 10:22.480 --> 10:23.640 I finally got the hang of it. 10:23.640 --> 10:26.600 It's just like, well, like swimming. 10:26.600 --> 10:29.200 You almost make it sound real. 10:29.200 --> 10:33.520 I finally learned how to take off, even while lying flat on my back. 10:33.520 --> 10:38.080 Of course, Harry, it takes a tremendous amount of concentration and willpower. 10:38.080 --> 10:46.040 But you know, if you try hard enough, you can rise slowly in the air. 10:46.040 --> 10:47.040 In your dreams, you mean? 10:47.040 --> 10:48.040 Yes, in my dreams. 10:48.040 --> 10:53.440 But the sensation is so vivid, so powerful, that after I wake up, I actually try to do 10:53.440 --> 10:54.440 it. 10:54.440 --> 10:57.920 In fact, I try to do it every morning in bed. 10:57.920 --> 11:04.560 It seems impossible that I shouldn't be able to do it the way I do in my dreams. 11:04.560 --> 11:07.560 I know exactly how it's done. 11:07.560 --> 11:16.280 I think he would have demonstrated for me right then, if the doorbell hadn't rung. 11:16.280 --> 11:19.920 I remember we were both kind of annoyed at the interruption. 11:19.920 --> 11:22.720 It was like being waken too early in the morning. 11:22.720 --> 11:27.880 Well, it was Hunter and his friend Vera. 11:27.880 --> 11:34.200 We were all introduced, and it seems they knew all about Carlo's interest in levitation. 11:34.200 --> 11:37.200 Hunter encouraged him to talk about it. 11:37.200 --> 11:42.280 I had no idea the thing was so well-known. 11:42.280 --> 11:43.280 Oh, yes. 11:43.280 --> 11:44.920 Everybody believed it in the Middle Ages. 11:44.920 --> 11:49.880 Why, there's some historic cases of men flying in the air while praying. 11:49.880 --> 11:50.880 Flying in the air? 11:50.880 --> 11:53.120 Yes, they would hang there suspended, still praying. 11:53.120 --> 11:57.480 Why, Carlton Newman in his Apologia professed to the reality of levitation. 11:57.480 --> 12:01.880 Wasn't there a medium in England back in the 1860s? 12:01.880 --> 12:04.240 I think Elizabeth Barrett Browning believed in him. 12:04.240 --> 12:05.240 What was his name? 12:05.240 --> 12:06.240 Holmes. 12:06.240 --> 12:08.080 Yeah, that was at his séances. 12:08.080 --> 12:11.680 He used to float right out of the window and then float back in again. 12:11.680 --> 12:13.240 I don't believe that ever really happened. 12:13.240 --> 12:14.240 Oh, it did, Harry. 12:14.240 --> 12:15.240 It did. 12:15.240 --> 12:19.280 Sir William Crookes was present at several of Holmes' séances and testified to the truth 12:19.280 --> 12:20.280 of the phenomena. 12:20.280 --> 12:22.560 Yeah, but wasn't he exposed later? 12:22.560 --> 12:26.280 I know some crooked mediums who've done levitation by means of trickery. 12:26.280 --> 12:28.480 Magicians do it all the time. 12:28.480 --> 12:33.640 That doesn't prove that it isn't possible to overcome the force of gravity by some unknown 12:33.640 --> 12:37.440 power or some sheer effort of the will. 12:37.440 --> 12:39.880 He walked on the water, didn't he? 12:39.880 --> 12:42.520 The apostle Peter did, too. 12:42.520 --> 12:46.160 And he sank only because he didn't have enough faith. 12:46.160 --> 12:50.320 You've got to have enough faith or you never can do it. 12:50.320 --> 12:51.320 Miracles? 12:51.320 --> 12:56.360 Miracles are merely the phenomena of scientific laws we don't yet understand. 12:56.360 --> 12:59.120 The Swami Vivekananda says it's possible even nowadays. 12:59.120 --> 13:04.800 Yeah, but those miraculous things the yogis in India do, they're the result of, you know, 13:04.800 --> 13:07.080 severe ascetic training. 13:07.080 --> 13:12.480 You can't develop these powers, Carlo, if you smoke and drink. 13:12.480 --> 13:15.120 And eat steaks and chops. 13:15.120 --> 13:19.600 And I never saw a mystic with a short haircut and a closed shave. 13:19.600 --> 13:22.600 Nor did I ever see one who wore smartly tailored clothes. 13:22.600 --> 13:25.040 Well, maybe you're right. 13:25.040 --> 13:31.080 But I know exactly how it's done. 13:31.080 --> 13:39.160 And I'll do it, too. 13:39.160 --> 13:43.480 I forgot all about the matter when I left New York and went up to Maine for a couple 13:43.480 --> 13:45.920 of months during the summer. 13:45.920 --> 13:50.840 When I got back, I called up Carlo and he seemed very eager to see me. 13:50.840 --> 13:53.320 As a matter of fact, he invited me over that same day. 13:53.320 --> 13:56.000 And so I went. 13:56.000 --> 14:04.880 Now what I'm going to tell you now, I hardly expect anyone to credit. 14:04.880 --> 14:09.720 Until now, you may have thought merely that Carlo was a little cracked. 14:09.720 --> 14:14.760 From this point on, you may think that I am, too. 14:14.760 --> 14:17.760 But I'm not. 14:17.760 --> 14:22.400 Yes, come in. 14:22.400 --> 14:25.400 Come in. 14:25.400 --> 14:27.400 Harry. 14:27.400 --> 14:34.400 Harry, I'm so glad you could come. 14:34.400 --> 14:40.280 I've, I've instituted a new way of life, Harry. 14:40.280 --> 14:44.880 Not so much to mortify my body as to refine my senses. 14:44.880 --> 14:46.880 I'm afraid I can't offer you a drink. 14:46.880 --> 14:47.880 Oh, that's all right. 14:47.880 --> 14:51.280 The smell of alcohol affects me disagreeably nowadays. 14:51.280 --> 14:54.120 Carlo, are you sure you're all right? 14:54.120 --> 14:55.120 Oh, yes, yes. 14:55.120 --> 14:56.120 Don't worry about me. 14:56.120 --> 14:57.120 I'm all right. 14:57.120 --> 14:58.680 But I, I do wish you'd stop smoking. 14:58.680 --> 15:00.560 Oh, I'm sorry. 15:00.560 --> 15:04.600 My senses have become so acute lately. 15:04.600 --> 15:11.800 Do you know, Harry, I can hear what people are saying out in the street. 15:11.800 --> 15:16.440 And I can read when it's almost pitch dark. 15:16.440 --> 15:18.720 There's a new power growing in me. 15:18.720 --> 15:19.720 Power?
